Express Your Love For National Flag

Is there any history behind the formation of your national flag? If so, what happened?

The Indian national flag is a powerful symbol of national pride and is one of the most revered national symbols. It is a powerful symbol that represents the country's struggle for independence, its unity, diversity and the aspirations of its people. The journey of the flag from its inception to its current prominence is a testament to the country's history and the values it stands for.

In 1931, a resolution was passed to adopt the tricolor as our national flag. The flag had three stripes of saffron, white and green, with Mahatma Gandhi's spinning wheel in the middle.

On July 22, 1947, the Constituent Assembly adopted the Indian flag with three scrolls and the Ashoka Chakra in the middle. As a result, the tricolor of the Congress party became the tricolor of independent India.

The National Flag of India was designed by Bingali Venkaiah. He was one of the freedom fighter of India. The Indian flag was adopted on July 22, 1947 shortly before India's independence from the British Empire.

What do the different colors or symbols on your national flag represent?

Share your love for your national flag through any creative means of art, craft, drawing, painting, or special video.

I thought I would make a Gif animation for this contest and decided to design it in Canva Designer which we all use a lot. here I am going to explain how i designed the Gif. First I selected the presentation and then opened a blank blank page.

On left sift side there are many tools for designing suchs as text, upload, draw, photos, elements , designs etc . I clicked the elements tool.

Then after clicking on elements it has search bar. After searching for brush stroke in it, it gave a lot of options. I have selected two brush strokes out of them.

I have given orange color for one brush stoke using color option tool just above the page.

I also gave the brush stroke below a green color and selected both of them and animated them to move from left to right in the animation option.

After that I clicked on Elements again and searched for India Flag or Ashok Chakra in the search bar. It had many Ashok Chakra options. Some of them were paid version and some were free. I selected the black Ashok Chakra which was free and gave it blue color.

Then I selected the wheel and went to the animation option to animate it to spin around the flag. After all the work done I played it once and the zip came in good shape and it was beautiful to look at I think you will like this digital art too.

I would like to invite
